Centre
of Me is a short, loud, catchy burst of energy, and stood out straight
away as a potential single.
The song was always intended as a no nonsense, catchy rock track, but
we wanted to add a different element sonically to give it a slightly different
edge. A few hours in the studio spent messing around with a nord keyboard
plugged into various guitar pedals and we stumbled onto a melodic bass-heavy
keyboard riff which did the trick, and replaced what could have been an
easily predictable chugging guitar. This also provided the song with a
huge lift into the chorus when the guitars and vocals really kick in.
The
radio airplay version of the song has been reformatted and remixed from
the album version. This process has ended up improving on the original
in our opinion, its full of energy, and cuts to the chase, no messing
around.
The video was shot in Christchurch, New Zealand by Richard Bell who also
directed the video for No Way To Decide. Its a great
clip, Bruce looks like a right rock star, and its a first look at
our new guitarist Eli in action as well.
Centre of Me can and should most definitely be requested on
your favorite radio and TV stations.
The
video was made in March 2004 in Christchurch with director Richard Bell
and thanks to NZ
on Air.
